Answer:

The original intent of Dutch colonization was to find a path to Asia through North America, but after finding the fur trade profitable.

The French began their exploration of the New World by looking for new fishing waters and the Northwest Passage

Many of the Dutch immigrated to America to escape religious persecution

the Dutch generally followed a policy of live and let live: they did not force assimilation or religious conversion on the Indians

Besides expanding the fur trade, the French wanted to find a river passage across North America (for a trade route to Asia

Some French missionaries eventually made their way to North America in order to convert Native Americans to Catholicism.
